Chapter 182: Leisure

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

*Vroom vroom…*

Ling Ran stepped on the accelerator while he drove to Yun Hua Hospital as swiftly as the wind.

After a full day of rest, Ling Ran was even more certain that the hospital was where true fun was.

The atmosphere in his house just did not feel right.

“Doctor Ling…”

“Ling Ran, Ling Ran…”

“Doctor Ling is here.”

Eight o’clock in the morning was the ti when there were more doctors than patients in the Ergency Departnt. The young nurses greeted Ling Ran one after another.

Ling Ran also replied them one by one. When he felt the harmonious atmosphere, he thought, ‘Now this is a normal world.’

“Doctor Ling Ran, you didn’t co in yesterday?” Nurse Wang Jia appeared from behind and handed Ling Ran a small apple before she said, “It’s a gift from a patient. It’s sweet; try tasting it.”

Ling Ran smiled and said, “I was on leave yesterday.”

“No wonder I didn’t see your na in the surgery record sheet. How about today? Your na isn’t on today’s surgery record sheet as well.” Wang Jia was talking about the list that was hung in the operating area. It contained the schedule of all operating theaters. Basic information about the na of the surgery and the na of the participating doctors was also on the list.

Ling Ran’s na had been on the surgery record sheet for a long ti, but he did not ask Departnt Director Huo to help him arrange any surgeries for that particular day. He said, “The recovery period of replanted fingers is longer, and there aren’t many beds.”

“Yes, the corridors are fully occupied already,” Wang Jia said as she looked around. She then whispered, “Doctor Ling, I saw the guys from the Pharmacy Departnt yesterday.”

“Oh?”

“There has been an increase in the usage of dication in the Ergency Departnt for the past two months. You can take a look at it if you have ti…” Wang Jia paused when she saw that Ling Ran did not seem to understand what she just said, so she explained again, “The director of the Pharmacy Departnt has quite the authority. If you want to be a licensed doctor here, you can go to him and ask him to pull so strings through his connections.”

“Oh,” said Ling Ran, but he did not reply further.

If ordinary dical staff wanted to enter a hospital and get a job authorized by the governnt, they often had to form so connections or beg people to help them. But such a general approach was not suitable for Ling Ran. He did not intend to go down that path.

“I’ll conduct my ward rounds first.” Ling Ran habitually took two steps into one of the operating theaters before he turned around decisively.

Wang Jia could not help but chuckle as she covered her mouth. She even took a picture of Ling Ran’s back and sent it to her Circle of Friends with the caption: The cute Doctor Ling.

Lu Wenbin, Ma Yanlin, and Yu Yuan had already arrived in the ward a long ti ago.

Each of them had more than twenty beds under their na. It took them at least an hour or two to complete patrolling their ward.

Fortunately, all three had a certain amount of experience or theoretical knowledge to deal with the prognosis of simple finger replantations. As long as they had encountered many similar cases before, they would naturally have the corresponding treatnt plan.

As the saying went, “Prolonged exposure to a problem makes a person an expert.” Doctors encountered hundreds of patients with the sa symptoms in the span of a few months, and it was inevitable for their skills in making judgnts to improve.

When Ling Ran went over, he read the reports of the resident doctors and houseman. He found nothing special so he just greeted the patients.

As a handso man in Yun Hua Hospital who had been on the newspaper and whose picture had been spread around in various Circles of Friends, Ling Ran’s arrival was welcod by the patients as well as their families.

Patients and their families were quite sensitive to a doctor’s dical skills.

It was just like how students’ parents and the students themselves cared about how good a teacher was in teaching.

The issues that outsiders did not care about were the main focus of patients. They naturally needed to know their doctors in various ways.

Many patients who had finger replantations did not have ti to understand their chief surgeons’ skills before they lay on the operating tables.

But once they got down from the operating tables, they had ample ti.

There was a considerable amount of information about Ling Ran on the internet, and most of them were praises. After all, the level of Ling Ran’s M-Tang technique and finger replantation was extrely high. Even if ordinary people could not clearly distinguish the difference between his surgeries and another doctor’s surgeries, it would be enough to lead a patient with a smattering of surgery knowledge in the right direction.

If a doctor with such good skills ca to perform a ward round, the patients’ mood would also beco much better.

If Ling Ran smiled and said sothing along the lines of, “You’re recovering well,” the families and the patients would smile a lot more.

Lu Wenbin saw how the patients bead when they faced Ling Ran, but he knew how crude and rude they were to him. He did not know if he should laugh or feel angry because he had been the one doing the ward rounds and he had been the one giving them dical advice. Earlier on, he was also the one who sutured their skin. In the end, the patients treated him so badly? Yet when they held hands with a celebrity doctor, they beca so elated?

Ling Ran’s expression was the sa as always.

When he raised his head and smiled, everything he wanted would be handed to him on a silver platter; that was the world he knew.

That was the world he was familiar with, and Ling Ran could fully sense it. While he received the treasure chests given to him courtesy of the Sincere Gratitude achievent, he spoke with a smile.

The accompanying nurses could not help but discuss softly among themselves.

“Doctor Ling usually looks extraordinarily cool, but he’s very gentle with patients.”

“His smile is so attractive.”

“The main point is, Doctor Ling has good dical skills.”

After performing his ward rounds, Ling Ran received a total of eight treasure chests from the Sincere Gratitude achievent. If he added these with the twelve he received a few days ago, he would then have twenty treasure chests.

It was not surprising that all of them were Energy Serums.

Ling Ran had nothing to complain about.

Energy Serums were considered quite useful. The ti he saved once he drank them could compensate for each Energy Serum he used, but he still needed to coordinate in the other aspects to make up for the serum he drank.

“Doctor Ling, when will the surgeries begin?” Ma Yanlin asked Ling Ran a little uneasily.

Ling Ran glanced at the extra beds in the corridor and asked, “When will the new rooms be ready?”

“It takes about a week, but they’ll just add around ten beds.” Lu Wenbin pursed his mouth. He wanted to throw in a sarcastic comnt about the problems of efficiency but felt that it was not appropriate. It was problematic to renovate three rooms, especially when there was nothing major that drove the need to renovate them. However, to conduct ten finger replantation surgeries… Other doctors may have found it a burden, but ten surgeries was not a burden to Ling Ran.

“Then, we’ll talk about this after the new rooms are ready.” The hospitalization ti for finger replantation patients usually lasted for more than a month, especially for patients with three severed fingers.

If there were any other hospital, and there was only one doctor in it who could perform finger replantations, then ten beds would be enough to et his needs. He would need fifteen beds at most, nothing more than that.

In Ling Ran’s hands though, even seventy beds were not enough to et his needs. Plus, they also had to take into account that Ling Ran tried to regulate his pace by performing a dozen M-Tang technique surgeries. As a result, he really had to wait for the beds to be vacated before he could perform more surgeries.

Otherwise, continuously adding beds in the corridors would also affect the patients while they were being nursed back to health. Work-related pressure on the nurses would also eventually cause them to erupt.

Lu Wenbin and the rest breathed a sigh of relief.

If Ling Ran had insisted on performing surgeries, they would have no choice but to live a plain life and work hard. There were a lot of surgery maniacs in the hospital, and each of them took up countless beds. So doctors in the Cardiology Departnt could complete three to four hundred surgeries a year, and each of their surgeries could take more ti than finger replantation surgeries.

“So we can rest for the next few days?” Ma Yanlin imdiately felt better.

“Yes, just perform your daily tasks.” Ling Ran ended his ward rounds, washed his hands with an alcohol-based sanitizer, and went straight to the ergency treatnt room.

He did not fulfill his wish of suturing skin the day before, and he suddenly felt an urge to do so.

Ling Ran walked away from the resentful gazes of so junior doctors after he snatched three debrident and suturing cases from them.

Right on cue, Doctor Zhou waved at Ling Ran. “Ling Ran, are you here to hang out?”

“What patient do you have?” Ling Ran was familiar with Doctor Zhou’s style. He asked right after he walked up to him.

“What kind of patients do you want?”

Ling Ran thought about it carefully and rembered that he had not used his three mattress suturing techniques yet. So, he asked, “How good are you at abdominal surgeries?”

“I can perform all five ergency general surgeries,” Doctor Zhou answered cautiously.

It was not surprising if the doctors in the Ergency Departnt could not treat certain illnesses. It would be all right for them as long as they transferred the patient to another departnt in ti.

“Let’s wait and see if we can perform any abdominal surgeries, shall we?” Ling Ran asked obediently. He only knew how to suture, but he did not know any of the surgical thods.

“Do you know how to use a laparoscope?” Doctor Zhou asked him one more question.

“No.”

“You don’t know?”

“No.”

“Hahahaha.” Doctor Zhou could not stop himself from laughing. “So there’s still sothing you don’t know…”

After he was done talking, Doctor Zhou felt a little embarrassed. He coughed a couple of tis, and his expression turned serious for a few seconds. He said, “Never mind. If you can perform microsurgeries, you’ll beco familiar with laparoscopes very quickly. We can’t do it today, but I’ll tell you about laparoscopes another day. To be honest, the probability of surgeons using laparoscopes in general surgeries are very high nowadays so you have to learn how to use it.”

“Okay.”

“We basically won’t perform surgeries for cases like appendicitis for now.”

“Okay.”

“We’ll wait for a major case to arrive. Let’s do sothing that requires incisions first.”

“Okay.”

The two then sat side by side on the chairs and looked at the door of the ergency room. They looked like curious rabbits who were sticking their heads out of their burrows to take a peek.

After a few minutes…

Ling Ran asked, “Doctor Zhou, I don’t have any surgeries I want to perform today. How about you?”

“? I’m also quite free.” Doctor Zhou revealed a plain smile to hide the lazy air around him.
